Dr Abhinay Bollineni, Director, KIMS Hospitals, on the group’s expanding footprints
Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences (KIMS) has a network of hospitals spread over Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Now, it is slated to acquire hospitals outside the twin states
KIMS is slated to acquire a slew of projects. One of them is a hospital in Indore. Please share details.
Yes, we have been looking at a hospital project in Indore for some time. We get a high footfall of patients from Indore and thus wanted to tap that market.
We are in the process of signing a JV deal to acquire stake in a 180-bed hospital on the AB Road. I can’t disclose the name of the hospital at this juncture. This hospital is spread over 1,40,000 square feet and has been founded by a group of doctors. It was started around two years back.
How do you plan to re-launch the hospital?
We plan to enhance management bandwidth, expand scope of services and also invest in new technology and infrastructural gaps. We also plan to introduce new facilities like endoscopic ultrasound and robotic surgery for gastro, gynaecology, urology and oncology. We will further scale up the number of beds
All our projects in Madhya Pradesh would now be in association with this group.
KIMS also had plans to start a Greenfield project in Indore. Any progress?
Yes, around 5 km, from the hospital we are set to acquire, we have taken a land measuring 75,000 square feet on a long-term lease. We have plans to build a Greenfield hospital focusing on oncology and organ transplantation. This would be a 200-bed hospital, but would have 100 beds to begin with. It would be spread over 1.5 lakh square feet. .
